Draft Grade — Titans
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Titans a B+.

The Titans torched the value chart for Trey Moore, taking him 39 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Ponds pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback and tight end. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Love.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
Fair-plus on Makai Lemon, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick20 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In pick 20 they get a lead back with juice, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Colton Hood
Colton Hood at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick49 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 17, with Sonny Styles worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
A quiet steal in pick No. 66: Jake Slaughter for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick97 Rnd3 Caden Curry
They paid sticker price for Caden Curry in No. 97, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick101 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
They went early on Bryce Lance in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback and tight end to take D'Angelo Ponds, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick140 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A big swing on DJ Campbell at the 140th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Trey Moore
A wild overpay on Trey Moore in slot 142, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 Gracen Halton
Gracen Halton at pick No. 150 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick182 Rnd6 Bud Clark
A clean, defensible pick in the 182nd overall pick with a little surplus value in Bud Clark. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick194 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
No drama and no debate, Trey Zuhn III went about where he belonged in No. 194. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jamari Lyons
The board had cheaper options than Jamari Lyons at pick 238, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
